I don't think the Sigma 18-125 comes in Pentax mount . I use a Tokina 28-105 which I've been quite pleased with

http://www.amazon.co.uk/FinePix-6900-Digital-Camera-6xOptical/dp/B00005N9ML

is the link I found
It mentioned that the user only got 1 high quality image on a 16Mb card. I think this is because of the way the Fuji images are created - although the sensor is 3Mb the images are equivalent to 6Mb - I think a few Fuji cameras do this.
I didn't buy the camera due to the smar media issue.....sorry I thought I made that clear.

I'll keep an eye open but with the 128Mb cards only holding 8 images at the highest quality I still feel it may be a limitation - maybe I don't need to use the highest quality

The Fuji Finepix 9600 takes CompactFlash and xD cards.
Unfortunately this was a 9600zoom - an older model that only takes Smart Media - if it took anything else I'd have snapped it up for the £50 they were asking. But with a limit of 128Mb Smart Media I couldn't justify it - even if I could find cheap cards (which I can't) they only hold a handful of images at the highest quality. Shame as this is a smashing camera by all accounts.

Not sure if anyone will be able to answer this but rather than registering on a Fuji forum thought I'd ask here.
Considering buying an elderly Fuji Finpix 9600zoom for my kids to mess about with. It is going very cheap due to......only taking Smart Media cards. I have a 64Mb and a couple of 32Mb cards but they won't hold many images. Does anyone have any experience of using a Smart Media to xD converter in a camera. And also any idea where I can get cheap (£10 or less) 128Mb smart media cards.

Don't think all other manufacturers have full frame - Nikon and Canon do but I don't think Sony or Olympus have one.

Personally I'd stear away from the usual places but all thelocations mentioned above are worth a visit if you've not been before. Anglesey is pretty nice all over. Very historiacl and many ancient landmarks like cromlechs. The wind turbines in the North or the island are pretty impressive. Beaches are great - I like Red Wharf Bay in the East. Have a look on the Anglesey Curcuit site - great racing curcuit in superb scenery - cheap too and easy to get close to the action.

It's got a tripod mount already. Sounds as though it may not be worth the hassel though - especially regarding the weight.
